The 'pods' that drop off of the plant. They will usually drift in the water, and will sprout
when they drift onto something. i.e. sand, mud, etc.
Mangrove seedlings have adaptations such as buoyant seeds and a mechanism to disperse them away from the parent plant. The buoyant seeds are capable of floating and being carried by water currents to establish in new areas. This dispersal strategy helps prevent competition for resources and allows for colonization of new habitats.

Mangrove seeds are viviparous because they germinate while still attached to the parent plant, allowing them to develop a strong root system before they fall from the tree to the ground. This adaptation enhances the chances of survival for the seedlings in the challenging and dynamic mangrove ecosystem with fluctuating tides and salinity levels.
The word mangrove is a singular noun; a word for a type of tree. The plural form is mangroves.
Green turtles eat mangrove leaves. It is not just the leaves themselves which attract the green turtle, but epiphytic algae or invertebrates found on the leaves. Certain crabs have also been observed eating the seedlings and leaves of mangroves, such as the mangrove crab and the tree-dwelling mangrove tree crab.
Flowers form seeds that become seedlings.

Mangrove trees do not produce fruits like traditional fruit-bearing trees. Instead, mangroves typically produce propagules, which are seedlings that germinate while still attached to the parent tree before falling and taking root in the surrounding muddy substrate.
